Église Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel, Catholic church in Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe.

The Église Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel is a Catholic parish church in Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe, under the Diocese of Basse-Terre and Pointe-à-Pitre. Its facade of grey rectangular stone blocks has three vertical sections: a wide central section rising higher than the two flanking ones, topped by a cross above a recessed arched niche with a pale statue, and a round clock with a dark face below the niche. A projecting gabled portico with an iron double door and lamp brackets stands at ground level, flanked by two smaller side doors with round windows above; a smaller round clock sits on a right-hand gable.

The church is classified as a monument historique by decree of 20 April 2006. Its two funerary plaques, those of Jean Louis Honoré d'Hesmivy, baron de Moissac, and of François Charles de Bourlamaque, are separately classified as movable objects. The building is a parish church of the Diocese of Basse-Terre and Pointe-à-Pitre.
